HYDE PRINEVILLE, OREGON Waterloo at Bend I L One of the greatest musical foa tures ever offered the citizens of Prineville was the program given by the pupils of Professor Thomas J. Hill at the Methodist church in this city on Friday evening last. The program was a piano recital and was participated in by sixteen of the pupils who have been taking instruction on the piano during the winter. Twenty-two numbers were pre sented which included selections from the primary department, others of a more difficult nature, and finally some of the most fin bV! and advanced pieces that have been presented to the public here by people who have been trained in the city. Numbers were rendered by Ila Johnson, George Springer, Lalocia Jacobs, Myrtle Lister, Paul been discussed at community meet ings and through the press during the past few months. Practically all of the farmers community clubs have expressed themselves as in favor of such an organization for Crook County -and some of these community clubs have already elected a delegate to attend the central meeting in the county for the organization of this County Agricultural Council. Mr. Paul V. Maris, State Ltader in County Agent Work for Oregon has written rgriculturist Lovctt as follows re garding these organizations in Ore gon : "I have received your letter in which you state that practically all of the community clubs in your county favor the idea of organizing Clark.

Jail Birds Fly the Coop; Soon Caught Floyd Hill and Bob Wahner two young men who have been boarding it the county bastile for some, time succeeded in cutting a bar in the jail Thursday night and escaped. The delivery was discovered at an early hour and Sheriff Knox and deputy Rowell commenced at once to scour the country for the prison ers. It was discovered that they started east into the mountains and the trail followed as far as the car could be taken after which the machine was abandoned and the oncers followed on foot until the jail breakers were appnhonded in Wheeler county, about four o'clock Sunday afternoon. They were returned tothe jail on Monday evening. Each of the men is wanted for forgery, but it is now possible that one or both of them will be tried for jail breaking. Miss Mary Swift left this morning-for Mitchel on receipt of news of her brothers illness. AS GOOD AS 'A CHEW OF i.' "SPEARHEAD' That Means the Supreme D- gree of Rich, Luscious 1A. Tobacco Flavor HO OTHER CHCW EQUALS IT Nature varies the flavor she puts into the different grades of tobacco leaf and the best of all is the flavor of choice red Burley that pleases you so mightily when you chew Spear Head. The delicious fruity flavor of a chew of Spear Head is a revelation to the man who has never chewed or who has been chewing near-gor,d tobacco. For chewing is the one way to get all the wholesome, healthful, appetizing flavor of the tobacco leaf providing you1 chew a high-grade plug like Spear Head; No other tobacco can compare with Spear Head in the wholesome satisfao tion it gives. You get more savory sweetness in a chew of. Spear Head than in a whole lug of ordinary tobacco. And you get it in its purest form -ror. Spear Head is made amid the most wholesome surroundings, in a great, new factory that's kept absolutely clean and sanitary. Try this rich, mellow, satisfying, pure chew. Such a chew cannot be obtained in .my other tobacco than Spear Head, la iOc cuts, wrapped in wax paper, am indeed, glad to have this in formation. No step that your or ganized farmers might take will result in more permanent good than the creation of this body'. Counties all over the country are now and have been deriving great benefit from the existence of an organiza tion of this kind which represents the agricultural interest of the county. They are not always called an Agricultural Council but the pur pose and function is the same and the name, therefore, makes no difference. "Your people may be interested in knowing that Lane, Yamhill. Wasco, Multnomah and Malheur counties, have already taken this forward step. In Lane county where the Council has been organ ized longest, they have, with the assistance of their County Agri cultural Agent, been able to ac complish many things of importance including the organization of a public market, in the city of Eu gene, the building up of an ex tension system of co-operative hog marketing which has saved the farmers of the county several thou sand dollars since it was first start ed last October; the fostering of egg circle work, of cow testing work, of drainage work, of 'good roads work and the reorganization of the County Fair to make it more truly a farmers' fair; all ''these things have deceived the attention of the Lane County Agricultural Council irt the short time that it has been in existence. The secretary of each of the com munity organizations in the county have been asked to state at what time their delegate can best attend a meeting for the purpose of or ganizing the Agricultural Council for Crook County. This meeting will probably be held within the next month and we hope that not only the present active communities but also many newly organized communities Will be represented at this meeting. Any desired infor mation may be obtained by writing A. E. Lovett, County Agriculturist.

COUNCIL HOLDS ITS BEND TO HAVE A yy An 'ordinance is being drafted by city attorney, H. H. DeArmond of Bend that provides for the prohibi tion of the sale of alcohol by drug gists of -that city. The law as it exists at present, permits anyone to buy pure alcohol by making an affidavit that it is for external use. This is the only real leak in the presenl dry law, and an ordinance that provides that a few drops of some substance that will only benefit the pure article for use as a liniment, and will render it unfit for drinking purposes is the purpose of Mr. De Armond in this matter. It will solve the problem, and will no doubt be copied in other cities of the 6tate. It is to be hoped also that some such measure will be adopted at th : next session of the legislature.

"Corn and Cattle Contribute Capita! for Bigger Bank Balance." is the slogan that has been adopted by the First National Bank and the Northwestern Trust Company of St. Paul and Bankers of the North west, in the promotion of their Corn Shows. Increased interest in corn production means the ultimate raising and maintenance of more livestock and diversification in farming methods, to the financial advantage and prosperity of the entire Northwest.
